    It’s just the instant reaching alll the way to a place that is just silly . Does ampk elevation impact mtor , yes . Does it make any difference if you can then do things you have never done before , no . It drives me crazy as they only reach that hard just because it allows them some kind of talking point for content .

    If you were able to totally optimize recovery to the max/sessions were short enough would you ever train 7 days a week ? I recall you did 2 a days at one point when working with Milos. Granted daily naps and nutrition being on point

    I take a serving of osteo pro am and pm and I take 3 cure coming am and pm , and then 1 pycnogenol am and pm . Inflammation / joint health management from them is key

    Is the 1 set upper/lower 6 day routine something you’d ever try? You suggested only if new to lifting .. do you think an advanced trainee could utilize this? Only way to find out is to try it i know 😂

    To follow up after 3 days of good sleep .. it’s back down to about 70 .. which i could still improve but def better. For about a week straight my sleep was terrible 5 hours or less .. and lost 2 close friends . Crazy how much stress and sleep will affect those. But I’m def determined to get it 60s 🙏🏻with some HIT session . I also noticed if i forget to wear my cpap it’s also higher , so i need to cut the crap with that . These are all things that some of us may overlook or may think minimally affect things but as I’ve seen in last ten days these factors can certainly make a big difference in the big picture

    Following up to this post and 3 weeks after coming off 300mg tren RHR at a constant 58 now.. i think it’s safe to say I’ve done enough tren in my 20s to be done with it for good at 37🙏🏻❤️take care of your heart [/quote]

    Great news bud :)). I defo agree, no more tren [/quote]
    Totally man , sometimes we need a wake up to realize we what we did in our 20s isn’t sustainable forever .. being on this earth longer is more important than long term tren use .. happy holidays to all🙏🏻💪🏻♥️

    No to hgh , it can’t be sold as a research product

    Yes , I posted it already Josh

    Water weight , but also muscle memory and then dosages of drugs I have never ran before

    I think you’ve touched on this before but is it ok to take all healing peptides in the morning with the mito stack ? Or do you recommend different times of day ?

    Zero a.i , I’m not fat , at all , so i don’t any

    Makes total sense. It’s frustrating when we look back and realize how many stupid mistakes we’ve made (cycle planning etc) becuase of incorrect misguided bs info. But i guess life is all about learning from mistakes. Thanks for all your help🙏🏻

    Sean I was playing with the combo to find a balance of what felt best for mood , sex drive , water retention , joint health , and I have definitely landed on 2.5g test 1.2g eq 1g nandrolone . I’m really really happy with that for all of them . I’m fucking mad strong , the water is tolerable ( ish) , mood is perfect . I get strange dreams when I add nandrolone , not very nice dreams actually and one is a dream I have had for all of my life and the moment I changed to add it , that dream is back and I fall back to sleep into a variation of the same dream , but that’s the only side that I feel tbh, and I can tolerate that .

    My apologies if you already answered previously but what AI doses if any are you taking with current cycle? Milos wrote me a program years ago having me take AIs daily and it completely killed my HDL so i need to never do that again.

    Mark I didn’t / I don’t care sorry . My fitness feels insane using the dada itpp , my joints feel insane and digestion perfect from the bpc etc . So I just don’t care . When I try something and I start finding Myself into positions that other people have never been , I then just couldn’t give a shit what they say. And I really like Steve , he is awesome . I am just focused on results and when I am getting them so fast , I couldn’t give a fuckkkkkkkk what someone else tells me

    Jorge , using them , just not listing . They have always been used will always be used

    Needed to hear this today! Sometimes we just need to listen to our bodies and stop giving a shit about what other ppl say or think…if it works and it feels right keep doing it 💪🏻🙏🏻thank you for this!

    277.4 , superb push session

    Prime flat press : best ever pressing by a good margin , eveyrhtjng to proper depth as per

    3 plates top peg + 3 plates + 15kg mid x 3 reps

    4 plates and 1.25kg top + 3 plates and 10 mid x 1 rep

    5 plates and 1.25 top + 2 plates middle x 3 reps

    6 plates and 10 top + 1 plate middle x 2

    8 plates top x 1

    Eveyrhjng very low rep there , but I can get a couple of the 2 into 3s and the 3s into 4s soon 🙂

    Super deep dips

    3 plates x 6

    4 plates x 4

    5 plates x 1

    Pec dec

    5 plates pinned x 5

    5 and half pinned x 3

    Pushdown 3 sets x 6 x 5 x 5

    Lateral 5 sets x 6 x 5 x 5 x 5 x 5 reps

    Very happy , will go over 280 at some point in the next couple weeks , have absolutely no clue how that’s jumping like that , but hey. It feels like I’m finally tapping fully back into muscle memory , but it just took a hefty fucking dose to get it coming back 😂 , I will fly through 280 and 290 will be very doable . I am absolutely not fat either as I am just not adjusting food . Obv a boat load of water but it’s not just going to be water on water on water all the way to 290 + 😂 . I now will stop even saying where the push will end , i will just let it do its thing.

    Hey JP , hope all is well! Did you ever get to that vigorous Steve video that said ITPP usage cancelled out BPC/TB500 benefits when taken concurrently ?

    200mg 3 times a week for the initial 6-8 weeks and then can pull back to twice a week or hold at 3 times.

    Does it matter when you take it ? AM /PM ? Empty stomach ? Thank you for answering

    Seems to work good at night stacked with 100-200 mg vitamin c and also helpful for the lymphatic system pre bed . I take 100mg each (5-7 nights a week)

    No Steve is very very smart , I’m pals with him , so defo don’t discredit anything he says. I will watch the vid today 🙂 .

    He’s def a smart dude for sure! Curious to know your synopsis after watching and if you think it’s not totally counterproductive to running both after hearing it. I’m sure there’s ppl he refers to that take far more ITPP as well… so that could be a factor as well

    I totally agree , i just heard the video and was like wtf .. entitled “Never Mix BPC 157 Or TB 500 With This One Drụg!”

    He goes .. “ if you inhibit angiogenesis but want to use TB500/BPC157 as a recovery aide it would be sending mixed signals “ is what he says in the video

    Clearly your physique has a hell of a lot more muscle than his , so I’d listen to you way before him.. but still an interesting listen

    Can’t eat , can’t breath , so no , useless drug in a push once your big and need food and need to carry bodyweight around. It’s the exact polar opposite to getting big , you need to be able to eat and be as fit as possible .

    Makes sense. Vigorous Steve just released a video saying you should NEVER mix ITPP and BPC157/Tb500 .. this sounds like bollocks and the first I’ve heard of this . Your opinion on this ?

    BPC-157 and TB-500 both promote enhanced angiogenesis (blood vessel formation), while ITPP promotes anti-angiogenic properties.. is supposedly the reasoning
